#BALDWIN PIANO COMPANY MOVIE#

There is an Alfred Hitchcock movie prop from the film Vertigo hanging from the large wooden beam in our showroom, the remains of a cool old hoist system that used railroad ties to glide back and forth on near our ceiling, and if youвЂ™re lucky our resident pug Pizza may be there to greet you. This building has gone through a preservation that has kept it in great shape, but also allowed it to retain all of the character it has developed from over the decades. Our building is over 100 years old and has brick walls that extend 40 feet high. We refurbish to this extent because of a genuine love of the craft. This is NOT a cost effective process, which is why you will not see work to this degree in most shops across the country. This is a hard thing to sum up in a short paragraph, but essentially this is a no screw left unturned procedure that involves dismantling the piano down to its core and extends to very detailed cosmetic and mechanical work which results in bringing our pianos back to like new condition. Our used pianos look and sound beautiful.Д®ach and every piano we sell has gone through a very extensive refurbishing process. If for some reason we donвЂ™t have the right piano for you, I will happily recommend colleagues from other stores in the area that can further help you find that instrument that youвЂ™ve been searching for. I would love to sell you a piano, but what is more important to me is that you find the piano that is right for you. IвЂ™m sure most stores strive to be low pressure, but I am probably low pressure to fault. We donвЂ™t have commission based sales peopleвЂ¦ ItвЂ™s just me. I started Seattle Piano Company for a few reasons: one, I wanted to spend my days working on pianos in a cool old brick building two, I wanted to work with only a select few manufacturers and three, I wanted to provide a store that served the community with pianos that have been brought back to like new condition at an approachable price point. IвЂ™ve been working with pianos for about half of my life now and refurbishing them is my lifeвЂ™s passion.

Fans of Baldwin vertical pianos love the beautiful cabinetry of the Acrosonic models and the durability of the institutional models.Seattle Piano Company is owned and operated by me, Aaron Firpo. The Accu-just hitchpins and Synchro-tone bass strings used on ArtistGrands are also important Baldwin innovations.ДЇans of Baldwin pianos love the big вЂњAmericanвЂќ sound of the instruments, particularly in the bass area, and the clear вЂњbell-likeвЂќ quality in the high treble end. The scale design is the вЂњrecipeвЂќ for the piano that consists of the materials used and all specifications, including the exact shape of the sound boards, the placement of the bridges and ribs, the length of the strings and the thickness of the rims and bracing. The most important aspect of technology in Baldwin pianos is their scale design. Baldwin has been in the business for 150 years and has become the piano of choice for the worldвЂ™s hottest artists, including Aaron Copland, Liberace, Dave Brubeck, Marian McPartland, Ben Folds and Miley Cyrus. History is extremely important to the Baldwin brand. Baldwin pianos are famous for their touch, tone, and durability. The handmade Artist Grands, built at the Trumann Factory in the U.S.A., are among the finest anywhere, at any price. Since then, Baldwin has become the only American piano company to make and distribute quality pianos to all price ranges and aspects of the piano market. In 1866, he hired Lucien Wulsin as a clerk, and the two eventually became partners in the venture, at the time named D.H. The company got its start in 1862, when beloved Cincinnati-based piano teacher Dwight Hamilton Baldwin launched a Decker Brothers piano dealership. Baldwin is about more than pianos-itвЂ™s about peerless quality and the absolute best-sounding and best-playing pianos anywhere.
